"(Evening) Time to Get Away" (sometimes referred to as simply "Time to Get Away") is a song from The Moody Blues 1967 album "Days of Future Passed", a concept album with each song representing a part of the day. "(Evening) Time to Get Away" was written by the Moody Blues' bassist John Lodge, and is one of two song written by Lodge for "Days of Future Passed", the other being "Peak Hour." The lyrics of the song are about ending the work day and returning home, which is evident from the title. Despite being about the evening, "(Evening) Time to Get Away" is featured on the track "The Afternoon," which also contains the song "Forever Afternoon" (better known as "Tuesday Afternoon").
Also, the fifteen-second orchestral prelude to "Nights in White Satin" opens with an excerpt from "(Evening) Time to Get Away."
On the original LP of "Days of Future Passed", the entire song featured all of the band members (except Graeme Edge) on vocals during the second verse. In 1978, the entire album was remixed due to deterioration of the original master tapes. The remix now only features John Lodge singing on the second verse. The original 1967 mix has never been released on CD.
